How asbestos removal works in The Hangers
Higher-risk materials such as pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board are licensed work, which must be carried out by a contractor holding an HSE licence. We’ll tell you if your job in The Hangers falls into that category. People often contact us about finds during refurbishment and garage roof sheets, including floor tiles, cement soffits and cement roof sheets.
Rural removal near The Hangers can mean longer distances to carry waste, so we plan the route before the day. We only recommend work that is needed, and we’ll say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Common reasons for removal jobs in The Hangers
Selling or letting a property can prompt removal of obvious materials, although sound material can often stay.
Get advice if you are dealing with any of these:
- Debris left from a previous job
- Artex ceilings before renovation
- Asbestos found during building work
- Floor tiles before a new floor
If you let property near Botley station, void periods between tenants are a practical time for removal.
What to look for in a quote
- What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
- What you’ll receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
- Which laboratory analyses samples
- Proof of an HSE licence where it’s needed
Can I do it myself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.

How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.
What happens to the waste?
We bag or wrap it, label it and take it to a permitted site by a registered waste carrier, and you receive the consignment note.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then get in touch and we will advise.
